Chicago \u2013 ForPlay Films founder and award-winning director Inka Winter is profiled in a new\u00a0Vice<\/em>\u00a0article<\/a>, \u201cGrowing Up in a Sex Cult\u201d, detailing her traumatic childhood experiences at the Friedrichshof Commune and her subsequent journey to becoming a leader in ethical, feminist adult filmmaking.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy whole mission with ForPlay Films has been sexual healing, through the art of film-making,\u201d says Winter. \u201cI want to give everyone \u2013 whether performers, viewers, my crew, or myself \u2013 the agency and empowerment over their own sexuality that I was never given, growing up.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the piece, written by Hallie Lieberman, Winter recounts her early life at the commune led by artist Otto Muehl, where children were separated from their parents, and coercive sexual practices were mandatory. \u201cIt felt like you were floating in the ocean and didn\u2019t know where to hold on,\u201d Winter says of her childhood.<\/p>\n

The cult\u2019s strict rules on sexuality left a lasting impact on her, as members were forced into non-consensual sexual relationships, with Muehl and his wife abusing children and young teens. Winter found solace in making short films with other children at the commune, sparking her lifelong passion for filmmaking.<\/p>\n

After leaving the commune,\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>Winter went on to establish ForPlay Films in 2017, where she focuses on feminist, ethical adult films centered on performer autonomy, consent and chemistry. Her films are known for their emphasis on performer input, creating a safe and respectful environment on set.<\/p>\n

ForPlay Films has garnered widespread industry acclaim, and Winter\u2019s commitment to creating adult films that prioritize performers\u2019 well-being and consent has set ForPlay Films apart in the industry, offering a progressive, sex-positive approach to adult content.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I\u2019ve found is that you don\u2019t have to have grown up in a cult to have experienced sexual trauma, a lack of agency, erosion of boundaries, or an invalidation of pleasure. It\u2019s far too common, all through society, and especially for women,\u201d says Winter. \u201cIf my work with ForPlay Films can not only help me, but bring joy and healing to others, then I will have transformed my trauma into something powerful and worthwhile.\u201d<\/p>\n
